C          F        G            C 
When I was young, I lived in the country 
               F          G             C 
Clouds were my friends, I cannot answer why 
              F        G           C 
Now that I've grown, I live in the city 
                 F      G                C 
And heaven is so far, I cannot reach the sky 
  
  
             F        G            C 
I once met a man, who lived in the city 
                  F        G                  C 
The stone was his home, he said his heart was mine 
               F            G             C 
He led me far away, when he told me I was pretty 
                     F       G               C   F C G F C G  
How strange to go so far and never touch the sky
